This past month, even though I was trying to get through samples, I also wanted to try and finish up those almost empty products before I returned home to Chicago.
Including the samples, (check this post ) I'd say I did an OK job. Read on to see what I thought, and what made it onto the repurchase list!
Lush It's Raining Men Shower Gel* I enjoyed this honey-floral shower gel, and you can check out the full review here . It is definitely more moisturizing than some other shower gels, but I have too many shower things right now to run out and buy this one.
Noble Isle Willow Song Shower Gel (GWP) Love this. The scent is so delicate and pretty. I want to buy it but this is a bit pricier than I'd like, and as previously mentioned, I have too many shower things right now!
Skinfood Avocado Rich Essence Mask I enjoyed this sheet mask, which felt light and hydrating at the same time. I would definitely purchase this again in the future, and I'm curious to try some of their other sheet masks.
Skinfood Honey Jasmine Bath Salts These smelled SO good, and I managed to get two baths out of it. Maybe I'm stingy and they should be a one time use thing. I'm not sure they added any benefit besides smelling good, but they're inexpensive enough that I'll definitely pick these up again.
Bath & Body Works Autumn Day Candle This mini candle was a fall scent with a bit of apple sweetness. The scent was a bit too artificial for my liking, and this mini candle didn't really disperse scent anyway. I think I'll stick to the selection at Anthropologie for my not so horrifyingly expensive candle choices.
Origins Ginzing Moisturizer I liked this moisturizer initially, but in the end it just isn't right for my dehydrated skin type. I imagine it would be great for oily/combination skin types or those in humid climates. Read the full review here .
Lush Veganese Conditioner I don't know why it took me... a YEAR (!!) to use this conditioner, but I quite liked it. It has a nice scent and worked well too. I don't condition much though, and I still have a handful of conditioners to use up. I would definitely consider purchasing this in the future. Read the original review here .
Aritzia Rose Candle (GWP) I really enjoyed this rose scented candle that a received as a gift with purchase at Aritzia in May. I assumed this isn't something that's for sale, but the Aritzia site says call customer service or visit a store. Hmm, very interesting! I didn't consider the idea of repurchasing this, but now I think I might! (Also, I had thought that Royal Apothic English Rose would be similar.)
Lush Lord of Misrule Bath Bomb* (not shown) This was such a fun bath bomb, and I definitely enjoyed using it. Not sure where it falls on the to purchase list though. Check out the review here .
Lush Pumkin Bubble Bar* (not shown) I can't handle how cute this bubble bar is, and I have to say that the bubble bar and the bubbles it produced lasted FOREVER. I would totally purchase this again! Check out the review here .
Lush Enchanter Bath Bomb* (not shown) This pink and orange citrus bath bomb is one of my absolute favorites. I would buy this over and over again. Check out my original review here .
Ole Henriksen On the Go Cleanser I have to say, this bottle of cleanser lasted forever . They've been repackaged (smaller!) and this creamy gel cleanser was a favorite of mine last year. In the last few months when my skin was super dehydrated and a bit wacky, it wasn't quite right for me, but all in all, I'd say this is a great cleanser. Read the review here .
Kiehl's Ultimate Strength Hand Salve I love this moisturizing hand cream and will definitely repurchase this in the future. Sadly, I have some other hand creams to use up first!
Finishing things makes me happy. :) Have you tried any of these products? What did you use up in October?
